How can I use PowerShell's -filter parameter to exclude values/files?

Question

I\'m currently running a PowerShell (v3.0) script, one step of which is to retrieve all the HTML files in a directory. That works great:

$srcfiles = Get-ChildItem

Answer 1

I am a little newer to PowerShell, but could you pipe to the where command?

$srcfiles = Get-ChildItem $srcPath | where-object {$_.extension -ne "*.htm*"}

I am not sure what the actually property you would use in place "extension" is though.
